removing "Recent Documents" from Access 2007

[dstork]

Does anyone know how to remove the words "Recent Documents" from the
Office menu? (Not the actual documents themselves but the words
"Recent Documents".)

Why would you want to do that?

 

[dstork]

Because the "Recent Documents" has no meaning to the user's of this
particular app I'm working on.

So no ideas then?

A quick search via GoogleGroups seems to yield several relevant threads:
"recent documents" delete group:*access*
http://groups.google.ca/groups?as_q...=en&as_epq=&as_oq=&as_eq=&as_ugroup=*access*&

The suggestion you made is relevant to MS Windows XP/2000, not MS Access.

Wouldn't this suggestion simply removing the documents listed as
opposed to removing the words "Recent Documents" in the Office Menu.
I don't see how a registry setting would affect a label within the
app... but maybe I'm wrong.
